  definition: The structured package payload used to derive package content identity.
    A package document declares package metadata, schemas, schema ruleset identifiers,
    package interfaces, interface contract bindings, artifact references, declared
    capabilities, resource requirements, fixtures, documentation references, evidence
    behavior, and effect behavior. Claim references are external to the package document
    and do not change the package CID.
